Rep. Jim McGovern: Our Cuba Policy is an “Embarrassment”
U.S. policy toward Cuba is “an embarrassment and a miserable failure,“ said Rep. Jim McGovern (D-MA) in an exclusive interview with Belly of the Beast.
The 13-term House Democratic leader said he has personally asked President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken to lift Cuba’s designation as a state sponsor of terrorism, calling it “just political.”
McGovern called the embargo on Cuba a “double standard” given the U.S.’s extensive trade ties with other communist countries like China and Vietnam, as well as those with human rights abuses like Egypt and Saudi Arabia.
“I want this administration to take some steps right now,” McGovern said, citing the migrant crisis at the U.S. border with Mexico and the upcoming vote on a bill to codify into law Cuba’s terrorist designation.
